Desi Dances

The council invites everyone over 65 years to put on your dancing shoes and join in desi dancing. No experience is necessary.

Desi dances are a mixture of many different dance styles including classical Indian dance, street, jazz and others. The music is usually very lively and with a strong beat, which makes the classes energetic and lots of fun for beginners to learn some steps or intermediates to dance along with difference skills and techniques.
